I know this has been asked a lot...what Spikes?

I was planning on getting the Nike TJ/PV ones, but I saw the sizes available for those, and well, my feet are a tad too big. Right now I'm using my friend's Nike Racers, which are apparently Cross Country ones, but I like them because they put me up on my toes.

Anyone have any to suggest that have good padding in the heel and are pretty curved at the toes to force me onto my toes? Also, if possible, Rubber soles, because I can use them in indoor too...anyways, Thanks!

I have PV lites, which I am in love with (http://www.eastbay.com/catalog/productd ... 41&sport=0), but i also really like mizunos (http://www.eastbay.com/catalog/productd ... 65&sport=0)

Jan Johnson gave me some mizunos he had at his camp at his home in atascadero, ca, and they felt really good. those really bounce you onto your toes.

Thanks for the suggestions...but..one more thing.

Personally, I don't want to spend a lot :P I think I may end up using my friend's racers for the rest of the season and see if I may be able just get them from him, as they're 4 years old he said. They're holdin out pretty well though...

those shoes might not have good support after 4 years of use, but spikes are spikes and they're better than tennis shoes. if you're sizes 4, 5 or 13+, try the nike pv/tj spikes. they're cheap, but they have limited sizes.
